Why should I get involved in Council's Annual Plan processes?
Council's Annual Plans sets out Council's activities, projects and funding for the coming year. It is important to Council that the plan captures the aspirations and desires of its communities; balanced of course with what we can afford.

What is the relationship between last year's 10 year plan and this year's annual plan?
Every three years Council prepares a 10 year plan. This is critical to Council's forward planning processes. In 2009 Council approved the 10 year plan 2009-19. This year's Annual Plan effectively mirrors year three of the 10 year plan. Council's next 10 year plan will be available for public submission in April 2012 and will look forward to 2022. It is usually during the 10 year plan preparation (on a three year cycle) that Council may suggest major projects or include significant items that have been brought to our attention by the community. The interim years tend to be a more of a 'business as usual' approach.
